IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR RADIANT COOKTOP
Know which knob or key controls each
surface heating area. Place cookware with
food on the cooking area before turning
it on. Turn the cooking area o before
removing the cookware.
Cookware handles should be turned
inward and not extend over adjacent
surface elements — To reduce the risk of
burns, ignition of flammable materials, and
spillage due to unintentional contact with
the utensil, the handle of the cookware
should be positioned so that it is turned
inward, and does not extend over other
cooking areas.
CAUTION
Do not heat unopened food containers -
Build-up of pressure may cause container
to burst and result in injury.
Wear proper apparel - Loose-fitting or
hanging garments should never be worn
while using the appliance. Do not let
clothing or other flammable materials
contact hot surfaces.
Do not touch surface burners or
elements, areas near these burners or
elements, interior surfaces of the oven,
or the warmer drawer (if equipped).
Surface burners and elements may be
hot even though they appear cool. Areas
near surface burners and elements may
become hot enough to cause burns.
During and after use, do not touch, or
let clothing or other flammable materials
touch these areas until they are cool.
These areas may include the cooktop,
surfaces facing the cooktop, oven vent
areas, oven door, and oven window.
Do not attempt to operate the appliance
during a power failure. If the power
fails, always turn o the appliance. If

may resume operation when power is
restored. Once the power resumes, reset
the clock and the oven function.
